Fire tablets are not Kindle e-readers. Amazon dropped the Kindle name from the tablets a few years back.

I tried a few different sans serif fonts before and many of them look kinda off on the Kindle IMO. For example, I didn't like Roboto or Helvetica, even though they're popular on other screens. But I've found that OpenSans works great on technical reading, even though it looked weird for other books. And for light novels, I picked Avenir Next for now. And I actually did just start reading The Expanse and tried Prompt on it, and I think it's this slightly more square-y blocky shape of the letters that gives it this sci-fi look. Personally, I like it best at boldness 2, max is a bit too funky for long-term reading for me. Thanks for the tip!
